Brown has certainly had an tumultuous time in the lead up to the release of Fortune, nabbing a Grammy and performing twice at the awards, which revived outrage about his 2009 domestic assault charge for bashing fellow pop star Rihanna.

Still, the R&B superstar forges ahead with his sixth album Fortune, which will be released in Australia on May 4. There will be a deluxe edition, with extra songs, and if fans pre-purchase at www.chrisbrownworld.com they’ll get an instant download of the first single ‘Turn Up The Music’.

Brown will be in Australia before the release of the album, where he’ll be showcasing new songs and his hits alongside P. Diddy, Missy Elliott, Ice Cube, Rick Ross and more at Supafest around the nation in April.

With the Christmas season over, it allows regular albums to reclaim the charts, and this week the self-titled fifth album for Beyonce climbs back up two places to give her the first ARIA No.1 album of her career.

A new U2 album could be with or without you in 2013, then again maybe not. Bono says the band has been working on a follow-up to 2009’s ‘No Line On The Horizon’ but doesn’t care if it takes 10 years to produce.
